ALL students can achieve at high levels and succeed in college and careers. Guided by this belief, District 79 helps students under 21 years old who have experienced an interruption to their studies to:

These goals are paramount for District 79’s diverse portfolio of programs for court-involved youth, student parents, and High School Equivalency students.
